- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Special Educational Needs (24 Oct 2024)

As he knows, I am our party's spokesperson on special education and have an interest in this area. Ballincollig as a community has a fairly large population of about 26,000, if not more at this stage. In comparison with the large number of people living there, it has had very few ASD classes...

I broadly welcome the Bill and its intention to provide for the establishment of a family High Court, family Circuit Court and family District Court. This legislation is well overdue and I have been following its progression for a long time now as a member of the justice committee. There is no...

- Family Courts Bill 2022 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (24 Oct 2024)
Jim O'Callaghan: I welcome the opportunity to speak on this Bill. I commend the Minister for bringing it before the Dáil. Obviously, under our Constitution the administration of justice is the preserve of the courts. Even though that is the case, we, as Members of the Oireachtas, have an extremely important role to play in putting in place the statutory architecture required in order for the...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Review of Climate Action Plan 2024: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (24 Oct 2024)
Peter Burke: Both are important. It is not simple to decouple them. We need to be clear about the value that data centres bring to our economy. Ours is a modern economy that has attracted significant investment. Approximately one in every seven euro that we will spend under budget 2025 will come from foreign direct investment, that is, corporation tax, in our economy. As a value proposition, our...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Review of Climate Action Plan 2024: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (24 Oct 2024)
Peter Burke: We need large energy users. If we have 37 GW of energy by 2050, we need to use the value of that energy on our shore. We do not want to export everything, but to use that energy for our society so that we can benefit from the economic value it adds.

Peter Burke: No. What I said clearly was that we had the large capacity to increase our renewable, clean, green energy. With the new legislation that has been introduced, we have a new pathway for our offshore renewable contracts, four of which have been signed on the east coast. We have a significant pipeline of renewable, clean, green energy, both via onshore and offshore wind and through other...
